365 Amplified: Remembering Michael Johnson. Plus: Meet the interns!

Listen now:

It’s been a hard week in Madison. Today, Rob remembers Michael Johnson as a mover, and a vocal supporter of Madison365 and its mission to amplify voices and create a more informed community. Then, we meet the Summer 2026 class of Madison365 reporting interns, and hear about the stories they’re working on: girls’ flag football in Madison schools, the Madison Pubilc Market’s soft launch, a youth entrepreneurship event for the Harmony Apartments community and Juneteenth in Sun Prairie. Plus, a big union vote at a Madison hospital.
